I had a similar experience this week. I was standing in line waiting to check in at a medical facility, when the line got kind of blurry. So the person in front of me motioned for me to go in front of them, so i did. Not because im special, but because i didnt deserve to be bumped down, either, and i no longer expect to be horribly punished just for taking my rightful place. I was just normal in a normal situation. And that IS special!!
